  5. How to Split, Stack, Season and Store Firewood

    How to Split, Stack, Season and Store Firewood
    Now that we are approaching the latter of the winter months it’s probably a good time to start cutting firewood in preparation for next winter. Wood is traditionally cut from January until early March largely due the moisture content of the wood being at it’s lowest during these months.

According to an RSPCA report the population of urban gulls has quadrupled in the last 15 years and as their numbers increase so does their tenacity. In recent years spates of seagull attacks have been hitting the headlines and harassed Britons are demanding that councils get rid of the nuisance birds. Continue reading →

    8 Tips for a Stress Free Green BBQ

BBQ and alfresco eating is often a pleasurable and economical alternative to visiting the local pub or restaurant. However, a BBQ probably doesn’t sound like the ideal recipe for successful waste management, but with some careful planning, it is possible to sprinkle a little shade of green to your grill - the rest is down to what you decide to cook.
